I have been noticing this from time to time and it is never on a consistent basis. Sometimes it goes days between events. Problem is I cannot duplicate this. I am asking this to see if anyone has observed this.
When running a skinned application on a rare occasion during starting the application will disappear. The application is still running because it still shows in the taskbar and I can close it from the taskbar icon.
I am using the latest Alpha Skins (v13.18). Delphi is Tokyo 10.3.1. Windows is 7 Ultimate Service Pack 1.
Recently I reported a somewhat similar problem when using Blend On Moving set to true with Extended Boarders set to false. That problem was fixed. I am wondering if some residual is still there in some other form.
As a last thought, there are some skins like Windows 10 that I have never seen this and others like Black Box and Custom BG 3 that it has occurred. Since I use Windows 10 as my default skin it can be weeks between testing skins operations. So this rare problem could be very old.
Like I said, I can not duplicate this one a consistent basis. If you have seen this, please add a comment. Thanks.
This window is just not visible? Or, maybe, it's placed at the background and covered by other windows?
It momentarily shows then disappears. I went back and looked very old code that had been in place for a long time and removed it as it seemed unnecessary anymore. I then did a movie of for about 100 minutes and used a looping program to start and stop my main program which produced almost 300 start/stop occurrences. I used Custom BG 3 skin. I looked at the video and did not produce any problem occurrences. Still not satisfied. I am planning on producing an 8 hour video. If there are no occurrences then the code removal did the job. That code has been in there so long that I forgot why I did it (unfortunately I did not make a comment). It was in the dpr source just before Application.Run. Never had problems with that code before but within the past month or so was when this disappearance started occurring.
